FTP Filesize and resuming transfers..

[Wintermute]

Hi guys,

FTP seems to die if a file is over 16 megs..always seems to stop around there. Trying to resume fails because the FTP user can not overwrite the file..The ftp account is the one set up through Plesk.

I can live without the resuming feature but if the file dies after 16 megs.. I have to delete it and start over..but them it dies again at 16 Meg..
so I am SOL.

any suggestions.. ??

I know you probably have already done this, but double check your quota settings, especially physical disk space one in the domain setup screen.

I had a similar error and that turned out to be the cause.

resume action isn't setable in plesk, but on your shell, if you use proftpd you need to edit your configfile to activate resume capabilities.

Edit /etc/proftpd.conf

add in global section:

AllowStoreRestart on
AllowRetrieveRestart on

to allow resume on uploads & downloads

Whether I put these settings in proftpd.conf or proftpd.include, eventually that get erased, or the files set themselves back to the uneditted state they were originally in. How do I get these settings to stay?

I think that only happends when you change/update Plesk version. :S

You just have to remember to put them back again...
